    Tszyu by KO sometime between 5-8.

    Yup. Tszyu by stoppage at 140.

    At 147, obviously Cotto.

    Tszyu around the 9th, I'd say. Cotto does well in spurts but Tszyu eventually breaks him down

    Cotto is much better than Tszyu, he'd beat the shit out of him.

    Cotto was far too weak and fragile at 140

    No, he was weaker and more fragile than at 147, but still far too good to lose to Tszyu.

    He'd break Tszyu down and stop him like Cool Vince did.

    At 140, that right hand lands putting Cotto on queer street.. and unlike Torres or Corley, Tszyu is good enough to finish the job. At 147, Cotto stops him. He was just too fragile/drained at 140.

    I take nothing Mex says about Tszyu seriously.

    He picked Brandon Rios to stop Tszyu. Nuff said.

    I don't "get" him because he was nothing more than an average champion, yet gets talked about as an elite fighter.

    You "get" him because he's Australian and you'd like to fuck him in the arse while sucking his rat tail.

    He absolutely does, that's the only reason I have a problem with him.

    He does very well in this forum, loads of people pick Tszyu against real elite fighters like Cotto, when the fact is his best win is Judah, and he got stopped by the best 2 fighters of his career, and didn't want a rematch with either.

    He was a good fighter, a solid enough champion in his era and weightclass, but nothing more than that, he wasn't an elite fighter.

    I'm also nothing like which you describe, I like a huge variety of fighters, and can almost guarantee I've watched more boxing than you. I just happen to find Tszyu and Mikkelboofski overrated, which has caused you to rage out like a bitch.

    Cotto is not an elite fighter...

    so picking Tszyu over Cotto at 140, a weight where Cotto was hurt often, is overrating him?? ehh

    I consider Cotto an entry level elite fighter, which is a clear notch up from Tszyu.

    Let's not forget, apart from cheating cunt Plasterito, Cotto has only lost to Pacquiao and Floyd, and just gave Floyd a good fight.

    Puppy Cotto 2002-2004 who was still fighting old fighters, bums, gate keeper would have given Tszyu a good fight...


    Cotto after 2005 was killing himself to make weight...that Cotto I could see getting beaten to decision lose by Tszyu....

    Cotto would smash Tszyu at anything above 140...

    Ridiculous. I think Zu stops Cotto. Cotto would have an outside chance. Cotto is like a china doll so very fragile. Zu's right hands would make Cotto cry. yOU RIDICULOUSLY overate the fragile Cotto.

    Tszyu couldn't fight a lick, he's as overrated as Tito.

    Cotto is not fragile, his resilience is simply average at world level.

    Let me know when Cotto gets stopped by someone on Cool Vince's level rather than Pacquiao or a guy with cement in his gloves.

    Cotto would stop Tszyu.

    VINCE Phillips was a very talented fighter who was adicted to drugs. Frankly losing to Hatton is a bigger disgrace.

    Anyway, at 140lbs Tszyu wins by late KO.

    I assume that for this we will take the usual approach with Kostya & cite the example of him losing to Phillips...?
    (if Phillips, etc, etc..imagine what Cotto, etc, etc...)
    In that case Cotto beats him because Phillips did.

    If I was to radically depart from the usual Kostya M.M rules, I'd pick Zoo by late TKO

    There's not a doubt in my mind that the same Vince Phillips who stopped KT would have stopped Cotto, only he would have done it sooner
